Hi Louis !!
I found this in the forum... let me know what you think...
Dim crtableLogoninfos As New TableLogOnInfos
            Dim crtableLogoninfo As New TableLogOnInfo
            Dim crConnectionInfo As New ConnectionInfo
            Dim CrTables As Tables
            Dim CrTable As Table
With crConnectionInfo
                .ServerName = Servidor
                .DatabaseName = BD
                .UserID = Usuario
                .Password = Pass
            End With
CrTables = CR.Database.Tables
            'Loop through each table in the report and apply the
            'LogonInfo information
            For Each CrTable In CrTables
                crtableLogoninfo = CrTable.LogOnInfo
                crtableLogoninfo.ConnectionInfo = crConnectionInfo
                CrTable.ApplyLogOnInfo(crtableLogoninfo)
            Next
Try
            Dim key As Microsoft.Win32.RegistryKey = _
                Microsoft.Win32.Registry.CurrentUser.CreateSubKey("SoftwareODBCODBC.INIODBC Data Sources")
            key.SetValue(ODBC_DATASOURCE, "SQL Server")
            key = Microsoft.Win32.Registry.CurrentUser.CreateSubKey("SoftwareODBCODBC.INI" & ODBC_DATASOURCE)
            key.SetValue("Database", objCompany.CompanyDB)
            key.SetValue("Driver", "C:WINNTSystem32sqlsrv32.dll")
            key.SetValue("Server", objCompany.Server)
            key.SetValue("Trusted_Connection", "Yes")
            Microsoft.Win32.Registry.CurrentUser.Flush()
        Catch ex As Exception
            objApplication.MessageBox(ex.Message)
        End Try
Thanks
